Debt Restructuring and Insolvency

LORD BALAJI AND THE DEBT

Lord Vishnu took birth on Earth as Srinivasa. Srinivasa once went into the forests near the hills, chasing a wild elephant. He eventually ended up being drawn towards princess Padmavathi (who was none other than Goddess Lakshmi) and wanted to marry her. King Akasa (father of princess Padmavathi) stated that Srinivasa should bear the expenses of the marriage and in turn pay a dowry to marry his daughter. This left Srinivasa helpless. Srinivasa sought a loan from Kubera (God of Wealth). Kubera gave mountains of gold as loan to Srinivasa. Kubera agreed to the loan on one condition that Srinivasa cannot return to Vaikunta (heavenly abode) without paying off the debt. However, Srinivasa could never pay back the debt he took from Kubera. Hence, it is known that the devotees of Lord Balaji often offer huge amounts to help their God to repay the loan and return to Vaikuntha. The Tirupathi temple has been the residence of Lord Balaji since then.
